AN EXCLUSIVE LEADERSHIP UTAH ALUMNI EVENT

Join other SL Chamber Leadership Utah Alumni members for a wonderful networking opportunity while enjoying a hosted tour with refreshments and beverages.

Salt Lake Art Center Tour and Mingle
Gaylen Hansen: Three Decades of Painting features over 40 works by Hansen, whose large, boldly colored canvases depict a fanciful world based on the rural settings of his youth in Utah and his current home in southeastern Washington state.  His paintings are humorous and dreamlike, populated by animals, insects, trout, and his alter-ego, a cowboy named Kernal Bentleg. 

Born in Garland, Utah, in 1921, Hansen spent his early years working on his grandparents' farm. He received his MFA from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, and taught art at Washington State University for 20 years.  His paintings have been exhibited worldwide and he is the recipient of numerous prestigious awards. 

For over 75 years the Salt Lake Art Center has encouraged the presentation of artwork by contemporary visual artists, offering the community thought-provoking exhibitions, lectures, publications and classes.

Time: 5 - 7 p.m.
